Chapter 77: Attempted Kidnapping

Luo Xiao went home to the house and spent the following days reading up on the scrolls he had been given.

To become an alchemist was not as simple as he had expected. First one needed to be an apothecary. One needed to be able to create medicinal liquids and pastes, and these were already rather difficult to concoct.

The apothecaries were split between beginner, advanced, and master apothecaries, and depending on the rank one had, one could make more effective slaves and pastes.

As an apothecary, one had to build a steady base for being an alchemist. One had to learn about the herbs and the different medicinal properties of various resources.

At the same time, when one had amassed enough knowledge about the herbs and resources, and when one had become a master ranked apothecary, then one could attempt to break through to become an alchemist.
